first night dancing

Last night we went to the Austrian club to see JW. My first night dancing since i've been back (and it's been about a week since i last danced - feels like a couple of days, though, owing to the weirdo travel thing). The Squeeze brought his excellent digital camera and took some wonderful photos of the band. i had a play and took some nice photos of my friends. they're a bit grainy because it was quite dark there, the shutter speed wasn't quite quick enough (i think - i don't really know about this stuff), i don't use flash (because people look horrid and washed out, though The Squeeze has introduced me to the notion of fill flash. hm.) and they were a bit far away.
This is a picture of doris and corinne. aren't they pretty? this is an edited version (i cropped for framing). i'm still learning, so be kind.
also, i'm having some troubles with mt uploading my files. so the link to the popup might be broken. check the archive for a better copy if you want to save a copy. please keep in mind that these are photos i've taken myself, and you should (if you're any sort of decent person) credit me. if you want to use any of these photos in your own publications (including websites) please get my permission or at least credit me and link to my site.
ta.
